I did go into the details of the driver but if there is no cooling device associated with a trip point it will result in a noop from the thermal framework POV. The check is done in the governors by going through the thermal zone device list and cdev. > I'll take a closer look to see if we can replace the calls to > get_thermal_instance() by something else.

We're not actually skipping trip point programming for PLL and MEM thermal zones in the current code. Instead, we skip throttle programming. As far as I can tell this is a mechanism built into ACTMON to allow it to automatically throttle when a zone reaches a certain temperature. This is modelled as a cooling device, but internally it's actually done automatically, which is why we have this code that programs the throttle at driver probe time, rather than the on-demand programming that typical cooling device would do (such as a fan). The reason why we have get_thermal_instance() here is to check if this built-in cooling device has been configured for the "hot" trip point. If not, we don't want the throttle programming to happen. This adds the added flexibility of explicitly disabling the automatic throttling by ACTMON and using another cooling device (or none at all) if that's what is needed. Dropping just the call to get_thermal_instance() and relying on the find_throttle_cfg_by_name() function will always return a valid throttle configuration. This is slightly obfuscated because of this: cdev = ts->throt_cfgs[i].cdev; if (get_thermal_instance(tz, cdev, trip_id)) stc = find_throttle_cfg_by_name(ts, cdev->type); As far as I can tell this will always return &ts->throt_cfgs[i], so the find_throttle_cfg_by_name() call is a bit redundant here. I'll look into fixing that. In any case, the important thing is that it would always find a valid throttle configuration and therefore program the throttle, even if we may not want to. Possibly we could work around that by removing this fiddly special case and instead add a new callback for the cooling devices that can be run when they are bound to a thermal zone. This would allow the throttle programming to be initiated from within the thermal core rather than "bolted on" like it is now and should allow us to achieve the same effect but without calling into get_thermal_instance(). I'll try and prototype this, but feel free to suggest anything better if you can think of something.

Why not rely on the thermal framework mechanism to set the hwtrpis ? thermal_zone_device_register() calls thermal_zone_device_update(). This one calls thermal_zone_set_trips() which programs the hardware trip point. When we suspend/resume, the PM notifiers are calling thermal_zone_device_update() which in turn sets the hw trip points.

These aren't actually trip points getting programmed, but rather the built-in throttling mechanism. That said, it might be possible to append that programming to the driver's ->set_trips() implementation. I'll look into that.

So it looks like for "pll" and "mem" thermal > zones, we now program trip points whereas we previously didn't. The DT descriptioni (tegra210.dtsi) says one thing and the implementation says something else. If we refer to the PLL description, there is one 'hot' trip point and one 'critical' trip point. No polling delay at all, so we need the interrupts. Logically, we should set the 'hot' trip point first, when the trip point is crossed, we setup the next trip point, which is the critical. With these two trip points, the first one will send a notification to the userspace and the second one will force a shutdown of the system. For both, no cooling device is expected. Well, actually I don't get the logic of the soctherm driver. It should just rely on the thermal framework to set the trip point regardless the cooling devices. The device tree also is strange. For example, the dram sets cooling-device = <&emc 0 0>; an inoperative action for a 'nominal' trip point ... If the goal is to stop the mitigation, that is already done by the governor when the trip point is crossed the way down. The second trip point is an 'active' cooling device but it refers to a emc which is, at the first glance, a passive cooling device. The gpu description only describes hot and critical trip points. The cooling device maps to the 'hot' trip point ! The governor is not used in this case, so the cooling device is inoperative. Same for the cpu thermal zone. IOW, the driver is not correctly implemented and the device tree is wrong. Thermal is not working correctly on these board AFAICT. -- <http://www.linaro.org/> Linaro.org │ Open source software for ARM SoCs Follow Linaro: <http://www.facebook.com/pages/Linaro> Facebook | <http://twitter.com/#!/linaroorg> Twitter | <http://www.linaro.org/linaro-blog/> Blog ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 14+ messages in thread

For both, no cooling device is expected. I think the intention here is to use the soctherm's built-in throttling mechanism as a last resort measure to try and cool the system down. I suppose that could count as "passive" cooling, so specifying it as the cooling device for the "passive" trip point may be more appropriate. The throttling that happens here is quite severe, so we don't want it to happen too early. I would expect that our "passive" trip point shouldn't be a lot less than the "hot" temperature. I suspect that's the reason why the "hot" trip point was reused for this. I'm also beginning to think that we should just not expose the soctherm throttling as a cooling device and instead keep it internal to the soctherm driver entirely. > Well, actually I don't get the logic of the soctherm driver.

Again, "throttrip" doesn't map well to the concept of trip points because its not a mechanism to notify when a certain temperature is reached. It's an additional mechanism to automatically start throttling once a given temperature threshold is crossed. So it's basically an auto-cooling-device. If we program it only in response to a trip point notification, there aren't any benefits to this throttle mechanism. So again, I think we're probably better off just removing the cooling device implementation for it and always program it with the "hot" or "passive" trip point temperatures. > The device tree also is strange.

I think this is because for the mem-thermal zone, "passive" is considered to be less "severe" than "active". My understanding is that the severity goes "active", "passive", "hot", "critical". "Active" trip points are those where we want to use active cooling devices (such as a fan, for example) to try and cool the device. The "passive" trip points should only be reached when active cooling devices aren't up to the job and passive mechanisms need to be deployed. Passive in this case meaning the hardware itself has to be throttled. If you look at the temperatures defined for passive vs. active for the "mem" thermal zone, then clearly they are reversed. <&emc 0 0> should be used for active trip points, and <&emc 1 1> means throttling of the EMC frequency, i.e. for passive trip points. > The gpu description only describes hot and critical trip points.

Same for the cpu > thermal zone. > > IOW, the driver is not correctly implemented and the device tree is > wrong. Thermal is not working correctly on these board AFAICT. I'll try to rework this. As I mentioned above I think we can just remove that throttle_heavy cooling device and instead hard-code that in the driver to a given temperature. Given that this is probably all defunct anyway, the best would probably be to extend the soctherm's throttle-cfgs node with a temperature field so we can avoid the reliance on trip points (which would allow us to get rid of the calls to the get_thermal_instance() helper). On the DT side, I think most of the cooling maps can be cleaned up. We can remove the entries for "critical" and "hot" trip points if the driver unconditionally programs the automated throttling. For EMC we want to reverse the "passive" and "active" trip points and possibly drop the dram-passive cooling map as well, since you mentioned the core would take care of disabling the cooling device automatically.

Yes, and perhaps separate it from the sensor driver. There is a similar hardware limiter for the qcom platform [1]. The description in the device tree is separated from the sensor and the binding has temperatures to begin the mitigation [2]. There is no trip point associated as those are related to the in-kernel mitigation. If this mitigation is a heavy mitigation, above what the kernel is able to do with a passive cooling device. It would make sense to just have configured outside of the thermal zone. So the configuration would be something like: myperformance_limite { @ = <0x...> temperature_limit = 95000; }; thermal_zone { cpu : { trips { alert { temperature = 90000; hysteresis = 2000; type = passive; }; hot { temperature = 97000; type = hot; }; critical { temperature = 100000; hysteresis = 2000; type = critical; }; cooling-maps = <&cpu NO_LIMIT NO_LIMIT>; }; } }; The behavior will be a passive mitigation, if it fails the hardware limiter will take over, if that fails then hot sends a notification to the userspace (giving the opportunity to hotplug a cpu or kill a task or suspend), if that fails then shutdown.

The hardware throttling is controlled using registers that are part of the SOCTHERM block, so we can't separate it from the sensor driver. I don't think that's much of a problem, though. The code for this already exists in the current soctherm driver, so it's just a matter of removing the cooling device registration code. > > There is no trip point associated as those are related to the in-kernel > mitigation. > > If this mitigation is a heavy mitigation, above what the kernel is able to > do with a passive cooling device.

What I meant was to remove only the cooling map entries for critical and hot since they would be unused. We absolutely want to keep the trip points themselves around to make sure the system will forcefully shutdown as a last resort.
